Review:I purchased the GMKTec K11 for personal use and have tested it for a few weeks across office tasks, creative work, and casual gaming. Here’s my honest take:Everyday Use:It handles 4K streaming, multitasking, and everyday apps really well. The setup took around 40 minutes for updates, but it’s been smooth since then.Gaming:I was surprised by how playable some recent AAA games were at low to medium settings. It’s not made for ultra graphics, but it’s definitely good enough for casual gaming.Creative Work:Solid for 1080p photo/video editing. 4K editing is slower but manageable for short projects.Design:It’s compact and saves a ton of desk space. Power usage stays low, even during longer sessions.Pros:- Quiet during light tasks; minimal footprint- Responsive performance for work and light gamingCons:- RGB lighting stays on, no option to turn off- Fans get louder under heavier workloads- Needed a manual graphics driver install to get dual screens workingFinal Thoughts:Overall, I’m really happy with this little machine. It’s become my go-to for work, streaming, and casual gaming sessions. The RGB lights staying on and fan noise under load are minor annoyances, but easy to live with considering how well it performs. If you need something compact and efficient for everyday tasks, content editing, or light AAA gaming at medium settings, this does the job nicely. Just keep in mind it’s not meant to replace a full-on gaming PC.

This mini PC is an impressive little machine. It handles daily tasks effortlessly, from browsing and office work to 4K media playback. For gaming, the Ryzen 9 6950H and Radeon 680M manage e-sports and older AAA games at smooth at 1080p and sometimes even 1440p. If you need more power use the Oculink port that allows for an external GPU, which is a great future-proofing feature.Cooling is efficient and quiet most of the time, though the fan can get noticeably lauder under heavy load. Thankfully, the BIOS lets you tweak power and fan settings so you can adjust them to your preference. With USB4, HDMI 2.1, dual 2.5Gb LAN, and expandable RAM & storage, it’s well-equipped for both work and entertainment and has room for upgrades, future-proofing my purchase.This is a great buy if you’re after a compact yet high-performance mini PC. Highly recommended!

I don't 'game' or download films. All I needed was a robust PC to support everyday tasks and run my music software.This GMKtec M7 pro managed to fit the bill perfectly. I was amazed at the size of the unit, considering the fact it carries two each USB2, USB3, USB-C, and Lan ports plus an HDMI, an Oculink, and an Audio socket, (I remember Apple's Mini-Mac and this is way smaller). The model I bought has 32GB RAM and a 1TB SSD together with pre-loaded Windows 11 Pro. It was easy to set up and was up and running within half-an-hour of delivery. This is a highly functional machine and , in my opinion, great value for money. If there is one tiny downside it's that the fan whines a little bit, at about the level of an electric mosquito repellent - which, come the summer, might be a benefit! As an aside, I was so pleased with it I went back on line and bought a new mouse and keyboard to use with it ... I'm now looking at a new monitor and a spare SSD to fit.

So the Nucbox_M7 is actually pretty good for the specification. It kept a stable temperature under load and stress testing of around 57 degrees, which for a small unit is not bad at all.The fans on the top of the unit is accessible by twisting the screen anticlockwise.It's specification has 16G DDR5 Ram, AMD 680M 12 Cores 2200Mhz frequency, AMD Ryzen 7 Pro 6850H with a max frequency of 4.7 Ghz and BT5.2. It comes with Windows 11 Pro 23h2 installed.Running some light gaming it performed well, there is the option of using the Oculink if you have the compatible graphics card, which offers some very unique features for those people who want to build specific units and change out the graphics.This device could run Proxmox server very well for its power (which has some configurability options) at a low operating noise. It could serve well as a media server as its small, compact and able to fit behind a tv or media cabinet.

The media could not be loaded. It's developed a extremely bad electrical buzzing sound like a mosquito.... Had it about 8 days.....Been smooth sailing for about 3-4 days, first day it was just sat updating n downloading software. Randomly lost audio and controller support after gaming on it for 3 days... It kept updating maybe twice a day it would ask for windows restart so I just updated windows again restarted n fixed for now.... I'm a little disappointed on the GPU says it handles like a 1050ti but on some games it can't get 60fps at 1080p and they're not new games like beamNG drive or 7 days to die both are unplayable. Not tried any triple A recent games GTA runs decent on mixed settings It's like a PS4 sounds like a jet when loading stuff up and playing any game. Overall I'd say this isn't a gaming computer unless you plan on adding your own graphics card this is just a desktop as is.One day later windows has decided to go ape shiz n change everything I've setup so I'm debating sending it back because I can't get on with it.... Won't game can't even handle windows 11 n that's probably Microsoft's issue.

It’s very good.Well packaged. Good quality.Some hiccups setting it up and you’ll need to go into the bios to tweak some bits. It can get hot and the fan until you tweak the bios can be a bit noisey. But so far so good.
